Alex Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 I did some quick tests with a level 3 Warrior in the tutorial area. Increasing Dexterity from 3 to 8 did nothing for the hit chance with javelins against Thrasher. Damage data could benefit from a larger sample size (it was 11) and more tests on it, but the damage was also the same, more or less. Increasing Missile weapons by 9 roughly doubled the damage. Is this the case with other missile weapons? Does Strength or Luck increase damage or hit chance? I might check this myself sometime.

Randomizer Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Luck is supposed to increase hit chance. Dexterity was supposed to increase missile damage starting in Geneforge 3. I know it didn't in Geneforge 1 and 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punctuation rains from the heavens Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Hit chance is capped at (IIRC) a minimum of 5% and a maximum of 95%. If your raw chance was already above or below that range, you will need to make multiple changes to see a visible effect on hit chance. Dexterity definitely increases missile weapon damage, though. It gives you +1 level of damage and +5% to hit. Missile Weapons should do the same. Luck will just give +2% to hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Hit chance was 90%; I would have become suspicious if it were 95%. It would be surprising if dexterity increased damage without increasing hit chance. +5 missile weapons did increase damage, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
